Both Eater and Inside Scoop reported on the upcoming closure of ~1550 HYDE CAFÉ &AMP; WINE BAR~ on August 14th, after seven-plus years in business. The restaurant from partners Peter Erickson and Kent Liggett wasn’t able to withstand the challenging economy, so they sold their lease back to the landlord. Best of luck to them, and here’s hoping they enjoy a nice break. New tenants are reportedly taking over the Russian Hill space starting September 1st. 1550 Hyde St. at Pacific, 415-775-1550.
